The adventures of Manga/{{Doraemon}} and pals - SpaceOpera edition.
''Doraemon: Nobita Drifts in the Universe'' is a 1999 anime film and the twentieth movie of the ''Manga/{{Doraemon}}'' franchise, adapted from the installment of ''Manga/DoraemonsLongTales'' of the same name.
Doraemon, Nobita and their friends, having an adventure in a 22nd Century Simulated Space Exploration kit, ends up losing the entire set with Suneo and Gian still in it. Tracking down the set with Doraemon's gadgets, they end up being picked up by an alien spaceship of the Space Knights Troupe, whose Captain, to the surprise of Nobita and gang, turns out to be a human boy named Lian, accompanied by his RobotBuddy Log, the fairy-like alien girl Freya, and the ship's muscular alien navigator, Goro-Goro.
After a series of adventures, resulting in Doraemon and gang saving Lian and his crew from a hostile planet of giant spiders, turning them from captives to friends of Lian and the Space Knights in the process, they eventually learn the truth that Lian and his crew are the inhabitants of the Milky Way Drifting Fleet, a PlanetSpaceship housing millions and millions of human and alien life-forms, and they are actively looking for a new planet after their world's destruction 300 years ago. What's '''not''' helping is that Lian's father, Commander Liebert, had grown tired of drifting across the galaxy, with his advisor, Angolmois encouraging him on taking military actions which may involve full-scale invasions on other peaceful alien worlds.
----
!!''Doraemon: Nobita Drifts in the Universe'' contain examples of:
* AcePilot: Lian and the Young Space Knights, despite their age, are experts taking on enemy drones in battle. Thanks to Doraemon's Enlarging Light and Material Modifier, the main gang managed to convert the toy spaceships from the 22nd Century Spaceship Playset into ''real'' spaceships, complete with functioning turrets, which they can easily pilot to assist the Knights.
* ArchnemesisDad: Lian, a noble member of the Young Space Knights who opposed his father Commander Liebert's violent tendencies and willingness to use force, including launcching invasions, on other planets. [[spoiler: That is, until the truth that Angolmois is manipulating Commander Liebert and the military comes to light]].
--> '''Lian''': Have you forgotten the teachings? We should ''never'' resort to invading another planet!
--> '''Liebert''': The teachings? What have they done for us for the past 300 years?
* TheAtoner: [[spoiler: Freya, after being revealed as TheMole feeding information to Angolmois and Commander Liebert getting the heroes captured, comes back in the last minute out of guilt, firing a laser blaster at robot security guards to back the heroes up]].
* AttackDrone: The Independence Army's invasion fleet constructed by Commander Liebert and the military, which he intends to use in conquering entire planets are unmanned drones. Probably done on purpose so the manga / anime can justify the heroes (Nobita and his friends are 12, and the Space Knight Troup are roughly at the same age) blowing up hordes and hordes of enemies in large-scale space battles without any guilt.
--> '''Gian''': [[[spoiler: after the drones come to a standstill thanks to their control antenna being sabotaged]]] Meh, and I was about to get my 100th kill.
* BaitAndSwitch: The final scene. Earlier on the planet of hostile tree-men, Doraemon and Nobita bumps into Nobita's homeroom teacher, Sensei, who congratulates Nobita for getting a perfect 100 in his exams, much to Nobita's surprise - because that was an illusion produced by the tree-men into making them see what they ''want'' to see. [[spoiler: At the end of the adventure after saying goodbye to Lian and the Space Knights, Doraemon and Nobita are on their way home and bumps into Sensei, ''again'' - only this time Sensei is reprimanding Nobita on getting 0 in his exam, much to their relief]].
--> '''Nobita''': Yes, 0 points! This is ''definitely'' earth! We're home!
--> [cue a very confused Sensei wondering why the hell are they celebrating over a failed exam]
* BeethovenWasAnAlienSpy: Angolmois, as mentioned by the writings of Nostradamus, here turns out to be [[spoiler: a mind-controlling immortal alien creature who manipulates the space military in carrying out invasions of planets]].
* BrickJoke: Earlier on when Nobita and gang starts becoming friends with Lian and the Space Knights, they then travel across the galaxy on Lian's ship while scouting for planets, passing by a black hole in the process which Lian tells them to keep a distance away. [[spoiler: At the end after Doraemon freezes Angolmois' BlobMonster form with the Solidifying Light, the heroes then have Angolmois sealed in a garbage can and use Doraemon's Instant-Delivery Mail gadget to send Angolmois into the nearest black hole]].
* ChekhovsGun
** The spiky, fruit-like object Nobita collects which saves the heroes more than once - such as glowing brightly while aboard Doraemon's ship warning them of their imminent explosion, and later waking Nobita when he's caught under the illusion on the hostile tree-men planet - turns out to be the God's Tree Fruit, an important alien artifact meant for protecting the Space Knights Troupe.
** While on a hostile planet full of {{Giant Spider}}s, Doraemon and gang tried luring the spiders away from Lian's ship with the Hamelin Trumpet, which doesn't work because it's too small. Doraemon then increases its size with the Enlarging Light and have Gian blow into it, which ''does'' work. [[spoiler: Towards the end, the Enlarging Light is used again when Nobita, Lian, and the rest of the heroes must increase the size of the Deflecting Cloth to stop the Milky Way Drifting Fleet from crashing into the Independence Army mothership]].
* DeceasedParentsAreTheBest: Lian certainly thinks that way about his mother, who died when he was a baby and had since became estranged with his father, Commander Liebert. It helps that Commander Liebert is [[spoiler: under the control of Angol Mois and manipulated into a warmongering dictator willing to launch an invasion on earth]].
* DerelictGraveyard: Doraemon, Nobita, their new friends Lian and his team of space cadets gets stranded in a space graveyard, filled with floating wreckage of various alien ships. Stopping over to investigate, the later find out the reason behind the derelicts' existence when they're assaulted by an entire horde of power-consuming parasites that comes at them in entire swarms. A missile suddenly arrives and draws the parasites away - one which is revealed to be fired by [[VillainousRescue the invasion fleet controlled by Angolmois and Commander Liebert]].
* FairyCompanion: Freya, the fairy-like crew of Lian's Space Knights Troupe, who resembles a human... except she has fairy-like wings and can fit in a human palm.
* FishPeople: Councilman Mazoura, the wise mayor of the Milky Way Drifting Fleet's colonies is a fish-human. Given the SpaceOpera setting he's probably a nod to [[Film/ReturnOfTheJedi Admiral Ackbar]].
* FightingFromTheInside: Realizing his plans has been foiled, Angolmois, who is still mentally linked to Commander Liebert, orders him to fire upon Lian, his own son. Commander Liebert appears to still be under Angolmois' control, turning his pistol on Lian... [[spoiler: beofre suddenly turning around and shooting Angolmois instead]].
* GhostPlanet: The story opens on a dead alien world drenched by acid raid, with a few crewmembers of the Milky Way Drifting Fleet on {{Hazmat Suit}}s trying to salvage the resources on it's surface before finding nothing of value - save for a still-growing plant.
* GiantSpider: Doraemon and friends managed to escape from Lian's ship after it lands on an uninhabited alien world, only to discover the surface to be infested with giant spider-like monsters with stingers capable of firing poisonous webs. They managed to escape, but the spider-scorpions trapped Lian's ship, leading to Doraemon's decision to save them and turning Lian and the Space Knights into their allies in the process.
* HiddenVillain: Commander Liebert appears to be the ruthless leader of the space military who's intending to launch full-scale invasions on peaceful planets in order to find a new home, [[spoiler: until it's revealed that he - and the ''entire'' space military - is under Angolmois' control]].
* IntercontinuityCrossover: During the Milky Way Drifting Fleet's emergency evacuation [[spoiler: when the control panel's damaged at the end and it's about to crash into the neighbouring mothership]], in one of the crowd scenes a one-eyed seal alien humanoid can be spotted. That alien actually showed up earlier in one of the manga's shorts as an alien Nobita accidentally summoned with Doraemon's UFO-Calling gadget (and pissed off in the same volume, resulting in Nobita giving his marbles collection to the alien to prevent an AlienInvasion).
* KeystoneArmy: [[spoiler: The Independence Army's drone fleet is controlled by a single antenna. Lian and his Space Knights, alongside Nobita and Doraemon, decides to go for the structure while Shizuka, Gian and Suneo buys them some time, and after destroying it with the Material Changer the drones immediately stops moving and comes to a standstill]].
* LotusEaterMachine: After drifting in space and landing on an earth-like planet, DOraemon and friends are surprised to discover they've landed back on earth itself. Except they didn't - that planet is an illusion world inhabited by hostile tree-men, whose spores can fool any unfortunate life forms into seeing what they want to see before they're captured and digested alive by the tree-men monsters. Thankfully, the God's Tree Fruit which is still in Nobita's pockets suddenly pokes him in the butt, making him [[ShatteringTheIllusion wake up and realize he's seeing an illusion]]. Cue Nobita waking Doraemon from the illusion with a thump on the head, and Doraemon quickly using an Alarm Gadget to alert Suneo, Gian and Shizuka - moments before they're devoured by tree-men aliens.
* RobotBuddy: Log, the robot sidekick of Lian which he considers a friend. After getting over their initial scuffle Log seems to get along really well with Doraemon, since they're both robot buddies to their respective human charges.
* MechaMooks: The security guards in Commander Liebert's hangar are robots. Probably because a shootout needs to happen there so that [[spoiler: Freya]] can kill a few opponents to redeem herself, while avoiding moral issues.
* MindControl: [[spoiler: Angolmois' special ability, which he uses to control Commander Liebert and his ''entire'' crew. The good Commander finally snaps out when Angolmois orders him to shoot his own son]].
* TheMole: [[spoiler: Freya turns out to be working for Commander Liebert and Angolmois, from sabotaging the fuel system of Lian's ship to giving the wrong co-ordinates resulting in Doraemon and friends ending in the hostile illusion planet, as well as tricking the ship to enter the DerelictGraveyard. Turns out she's doing it all ''for Lian'', believing its for the good of the Milky Way Drifting Fleet after they've been drifting aimlessly in space for three centuries]]. She does get a RedemptionPromotion much later.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: [[spoiler: As Angolmois, whose initial body had sustained heavy damage from being shot by Commander Liebert, tries to activate the mothership's control panel forcing it to crash, Lian then fires a single shot through Angolmois' body... penetrating and hitting the main control panel as well, causing the mothership to began dropping]]. Lian lampshades this with a MyGodWhatHaveIDone reaction until Nobita gives [[GetAHoldOfYourselfMan Lian a slap waking him to regain himself]].
* OmnicidalManiac: [[spoiler:Angolmois']] sole reason of existance is to initiate invasions and wipe out entire planets, and is content with letting the Milky Way Drifting Fleet - a PlanetSpaceship carrying millions and millions of different alien races from across the galaxy - being destroyed to spite the heroes.
* PercussiveMaintenance: When the hatch of Lian's ship gets jammed just as Nobita and friends are trapped on the surface of the illusory planet, about to be devoured by tree-aliens, Lian resorts to repeatedly stomping on the door to make it open. It thankfully works right in the nick of time.
* PlanetSpaceship: The Milky Way Drifting Fleet turns out to be a ''massive'' starship, the size of a small planet, housing hundreds of different alien races, humans from different planets (Lian being one of them), robots and the like. It has entire towns and facilities in it's interiors where various alien races can live together like an intergalactic melting pot.
* SpaceBattle: Every single large-scale action scene is an epic space battle, from Lian and the Space Knights (backed up by Doraemon and gang who had their own modified ships) battling Commander Liebert's drone army, to their [[RaceAgainstTheClock race against time]] [[spoiler: to save the Milky Way Drifting Fleet when it's about to collide with the mothership and prevent destruction of all life on board]].
* SpaceCadet: Lian and his team, as well as the entirety of the Space Knights Troupe. They serve as the backbone of defense for the Milky Way Drifting Fleet in dire times.
* ThisWasHisTrueForm: [[spoiler: Angolmois, after getting shot and finished off by Lian, is revealed to be a robot underneath his cloak. Except this robot is ''also'' a decoy - his true form is an immortal BlobMonster who later assimilates a pile of random junk, taking on a new robotic-humanoid form with a [[TVHeadRobot TV as his head]].]]
* TorsoWithAView: Lian managed to finish off [[spoiler: Angolmois' first form]] by shooting him through the midsection. Unfortunately his shot also ends up hitting a control panel, causing the mothership to lose control...
* TheUnintelligible: Goro-Goro, TheBigGuy on Lian's Space Knight team. Lian, Log and Freya seems to understand him, though.
* UnwittingPawn: Commander Liebert and basically the rest of the space military are merely [[spoiler: pawns under Angolmois' control, being manipulated into contructing a drone fleet for conquering entire planets much to Angolmois' amusement]].
* {{Warhawk}}: Commander Liebert ''appears'' to be one, given he approved the development of the invasion drone fleet and is prepared to launch invasions on other planets, including ''Earth'', and is willing to blow up the Milky Way Drifting Fleet's mothership in an act of spite. [[spoiler: It turns out Liebert was actually being controlled by his advisor, Angolmois, who is pulling the strings behind their military activities]].
* WhenTreesAttack: One of the hostile planets Nobita and gang landed on, mistaking it for earth, is populated by sentient, living tree-men whose spores can trick unfortunate living beings into seeing things - and while they're left unaware, indulging in illusions, they'll be devoured alive by those tree-men. This fate nearly befell Nobita and gang if not for the God's Tree Fruit poking Nobita in the rump and waking him.

Earlier on the planet of hostile tree-men, Doraemon and Nobita bumps into Nobita's homeroom teacher, Sensei, who congratulates Nobita for getting a perfect 100 in his exams, much to Nobita's surprise - because that was an illusion produced by the tree-men into making them see what they ''want'' to see. [[spoiler: At the end of the adventure after saying goodbye to Lian and the Space Knights, Doraemon and Nobita are on their way home and bumps into Sensei, ''again'' - only this time Sensei is reprimanding Nobita on getting 0 in his exam, much to their relief]].
--> '''Nobita''': Yes, 0 points! This is ''definitely'' earth! We're home!
--> [cue a very confused Sensei wondering why the hell are they celebrating over a failed exam]
* BeethovenWasAnAlienSpy: Angolmois, as mentioned by the writings of Nostradamus, here turns out to be [[spoiler: a mind-controlling immortal alien creature who manipulates the space military in carrying out invasions of planets]].
* BrickJoke: Earlier on when Nobita and gang starts becoming friends with Lian and the Space Knights, they then travel across the galaxy on Lian's ship while scouting for planets, passing by a black hole in the process which Lian tells them to keep a distance away. [[spoiler: At the end after Doraemon freezes Angolmois' BlobMonster form with the Solidifying Light, the heroes then have Angolmois sealed in a garbage can and use Doraemon's Instant-Delivery Mail gadget to send Angolmois into the nearest black hole]].
* ChekhovsGun
** The spiky, fruit-like object Nobita collects which saves the heroes more than once - such as glowing brightly while aboard Doraemon's ship warning them of their imminent explosion, and later waking Nobita when he's caught under the illusion on the hostile tree-men planet - turns out to be the God's Tree Fruit, an important alien artifact meant for protecting the Space Knights Troupe.
** While on a hostile planet full of {{Giant Spider}}s, Doraemon and gang tried luring the spiders away from Lian's ship with the Hamelin Trumpet, which doesn't work because it's too small. Doraemon then increases its size with the Enlarging Light and have Gian blow into it, which ''does'' work. [[spoiler: Towards the end, the Enlarging Light is used again when Nobita, Lian, and the rest of the heroes must increase the size of the Deflecting Cloth to stop the Milky Way Drifting Fleet from crashing into the Independence Army mothership]].
* DeceasedParentsAreTheBest: Lian certainly thinks that way about his mother, who died when he was a baby and had since became estranged with his father, Commander Liebert. It helps that Commander Liebert is [[spoiler: under the control of Angol Mois and manipulated into a warmongering dictator willing to launch an invasion on earth]].
* DerelictGraveyard: Doraemon, Nobita, their new friends Lian and his team of space cadets gets stranded in a space graveyard, filled with floating wreckage of various alien ships. Stopping over to investigate, the later find out the reason behind the derelicts' existence when they're assaulted by an entire horde of power-consuming parasites that comes at them in entire swarms. A missile suddenly arrives and draws the parasites away - one which is revealed to be fired by [[VillainousRescue the invasion fleet controlled by Angolmois and Commander Liebert]].
* FairyCompanion: Freya, the fairy-like crew of Lian's Space Knights Troupe, who resembles a human... except she has fairy-like wings and can fit in a human palm.
* FishPeople: Councilman Mazoura, the wise mayor of the Milky Way Drifting Fleet's colonies is a fish-human. Given the SpaceOpera setting he's probably a nod to [[Film/ReturnOfTheJedi Admiral Ackbar]].
* FightingFromTheInside: Realizing his plans has been foiled, Angolmois, who is still mentally linked to Commander Liebert, orders him to fire upon Lian, his own son. Commander Liebert appears to still be under Angolmois' control, turning his pistol on Lian... [[spoiler: beofre suddenly turning around and shooting Angolmois instead]].
* GhostPlanet: The story opens on a dead alien world drenched by acid raid, with a few crewmembers of the Milky Way Drifting Fleet on {{Hazmat Suit}}s trying to salvage the resources on it's surface before finding nothing of value - save for a still-growing plant.
* GiantSpider: Doraemon and friends managed to escape from Lian's ship after it lands on an uninhabited alien world, only to discover the surface to be infested with giant spider-like monsters with stingers capable of firing poisonous webs. They managed to escape, but the spider-scorpions trapped Lian's ship, leading to Doraemon's decision to save them and turning Lian and the Space Knights into their allies in the process.
* HiddenVillain: Commander Liebert appears to be the ruthless leader of the space military who's intending to launch full-scale invasions on peaceful planets in order to find a new home, [[spoiler: until it's revealed that he - and the ''entire'' space military - is under Angolmois' control]].
* IntercontinuityCrossover: During the Milky Way Drifting Fleet's emergency evacuation [[spoiler: when the control panel's damaged at the end and it's about to crash into the neighbouring mothership]], in one of the crowd scenes a one-eyed seal alien humanoid can be spotted. That alien actually showed up earlier in one of the manga's shorts as an alien Nobita accidentally summoned with Doraemon's UFO-Calling gadget (and pissed off in the same volume, resulting in Nobita giving his marbles collection to the alien to prevent an AlienInvasion).
* KeystoneArmy: [[spoiler: The Independence Army's drone fleet is controlled by a single antenna. Lian and his Space Knights, alongside Nobita and Doraemon, decides to go for the structure while Shizuka, Gian and Suneo buys them some time, and after destroying it with the Material Changer the drones immediately stops moving and comes to a standstill]].
* LotusEaterMachine: After drifting in space and landing on an earth-like planet, DOraemon and friends are surprised to discover they've landed back on earth itself. Except they didn't - that planet is an illusion world inhabited by hostile tree-men, whose spores can fool any unfortunate life forms into seeing what they want to see before they're captured and digested alive by the tree-men monsters. Thankfully, the God's Tree Fruit which is still in Nobita's pockets suddenly pokes him in the butt, making him [[ShatteringTheIllusion wake up and realize he's seeing an illusion]]. Cue Nobita waking Doraemon from the illusion with a thump on the head, and Doraemon quickly using an Alarm Gadget to alert Suneo, Gian and Shizuka - moments before they're devoured by tree-men aliens.
* RobotBuddy: Log, the robot sidekick of Lian which he considers a friend. After getting over their initial scuffle Log seems to get along really well with Doraemon, since they're both robot buddies to their respective human charges.
* MechaMooks: The security guards in Commander Liebert's hangar are robots. Probably because a shootout needs to happen there so that [[spoiler: Freya]] can kill a few opponents to redeem herself, while avoiding moral issues.
* MindControl: [[spoiler: Angolmois' special ability, which he uses to control Commander Liebert and his ''entire'' crew. The good Commander finally snaps out when Angolmois orders him to shoot his own son]].
* TheMole: [[spoiler: Freya turns out to be working for Commander Liebert and Angolmois, from sabotaging the fuel system of Lian's ship to giving the wrong co-ordinates resulting in Doraemon and friends ending in the hostile illusion planet, as well as tricking the ship to enter the DerelictGraveyard. Turns out she's doing it all ''for Lian'', believing its for the good of the Milky Way Drifting Fleet after they've been drifting aimlessly in space for three centuries]]. She does get a RedemptionPromotion much later.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: [[spoiler: As Angolmois, whose initial body had sustained heavy damage from being shot by Commander Liebert, tries to activate the mothership's control panel forcing it to crash, Lian then fires a single shot through Angolmois' body... penetrating and hitting the main control panel as well, causing the mothership to began dropping]]. Lian lampshades this with a MyGodWhatHaveIDone reaction until Nobita gives [[GetAHoldOfYourselfMan Lian a slap waking him to regain himself]].
* OmnicidalManiac: [[spoiler:Angolmois']] sole reason of existance is to initiate invasions and wipe out entire planets, and is content with letting the Milky Way Drifting Fleet - a PlanetSpaceship carrying millions and millions of different alien races from across the galaxy - being destroyed to spite the heroes.
* PercussiveMaintenance: When the hatch of Lian's ship gets jammed just as Nobita and friends are trapped on the surface of the illusory planet, about to be devoured by tree-aliens, Lian resorts to repeatedly stomping on the door to make it open. It thankfully works right in the nick of time.
* PlanetSpaceship: The Milky Way Drifting Fleet turns out to be a ''massive'' starship, the size of a small planet, housing hundreds of different alien races, humans from different planets (Lian being one of them), robots and the like. It has entire towns and facilities in it's interiors where various alien races can live together like an intergalactic melting pot.
* SpaceBattle: Every single large-scale action scene is an epic space battle, from Lian and the Space Knights (backed up by Doraemon and gang who had their own modified ships) battling Commander Liebert's drone army, to their [[RaceAgainstTheClock race against time]] [[spoiler: to save the Milky Way Drifting Fleet when it's about to collide with the mothership and prevent destruction of all life on board]].
* SpaceCadet: Lian and his team, as well as the entirety of the Space Knights Troupe. They serve as the backbone of defense for the Milky Way Drifting Fleet in dire times.
* ThisWasHisTrueForm: [[spoiler: Angolmois, after getting shot and finished off by Lian, is revealed to be a robot underneath his cloak. Except this robot is ''also'' a decoy - his true form is an immortal BlobMonster who later assimilates a pile of random junk, taking on a new robotic-humanoid form with a [[TVHeadRobot TV as his head]].]]
* TorsoWithAView: Lian managed to finish off [[spoiler: Angolmois' first form]] by shooting him through the midsection. Unfortunately his shot also ends up hitting a control panel, causing the mothership to lose control...
* TheUnintelligible: Goro-Goro, TheBigGuy on Lian's Space Knight team. Lian, Log and Freya seems to understand him, though.
* UnwittingPawn: Commander Liebert and basically the rest of the space military are merely [[spoiler: pawns under Angolmois' control, being manipulated into contructing a drone fleet for conquering entire planets much to Angolmois' amusement]].
* {{Warhawk}}: Commander Liebert ''appears'' to be one, given he approved the development of the invasion drone fleet and is prepared to launch invasions on other planets, including ''Earth'', and is willing to blow up the Milky Way Drifting Fleet's mothership in an act of spite. [[spoiler: It turns out Liebert was actually being controlled by his advisor, Angolmois, who is pulling the strings behind their military activities]].
* WhenTreesAttack: One of the hostile planets Nobita and gang landed on, mistaking it for earth, is populated by sentient, living tree-men whose spores can trick unfortunate living beings into seeing things - and while they're left unaware, indulging in illusions, they'll be devoured alive by those tree-men. This fate nearly befell Nobita and gang if not for the God's Tree Fruit poking Nobita in the rump and waking him.
